I keep saying, the modern day democrat party is the party of PERVERTS, ILLEGALS and CORRUPTION... well... here's your PERVERTS, and it's a CHILD... and it is REALLY DISTURBING... seriously... makes me uneasy to even watch it. Wonder what other's think... watch at your own peril... and just for the record, I haven't watch the WHOLE THING... I couldn't get through it...

I was profoundly disappointed to learn that National Review had published George Will’s ugly attack on evangelist Billy Graham just days after America’s pastor died.“Billy Graham: Neither Prophet nor Theologian,” the conservative publication’s headline declared.Tired of Facebook blocking conservative content?

It’s a must-read for patriots!I would expect to read such anti-Christian mockery in the pages of The New York Times and Washington Post, but not National Review. My, how times have changed.“Prophets take adversarial stances toward their times, as did the 20th century’s two greatest religious leaders, the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. and Pope John Paul II. Graham did not. Partly for that reason, his country showered him with honors,” the self-described atheist wrote.Will went on to describe Graham as an “entrepreneurial evangelical who consciously emulated masters of secular communication.”He also derided those who walked the aisle to accept Jesus Christ as their Lord at Graham’s crusade meetings.“His audiences were exhorted to make a ‘decision’ for Christ, but a moment of volition might be (in theologian Dietrich Bonhoeffer’s phrase) an exercise in ‘cheap grace.’ Graham’s preaching, to large rallies and broadcast audiences, gave comfort to many people and probably improved some,” Will wrote.Robert Jeffress, the pastor of the First Baptist Church in Dallas and a spiritual advisor to President Trump, delivered a blunt rebuke of the so-called conservative writer.“George Will’s article reveals that he is neither a conservative nor a Christian,” Jeffress told the Todd Starnes Radio Show.Some of the nation’s leading Christian leaders were also quick to condemn Will’s ugly screed.“George Will’s snide and spiritually clueless criticisms of the incomparable Billy Graham reveal far more about Will’s ignorance and hostility to the spiritual than he perhaps intended,” Southern Evangelical Seminary President Richard Land said.“When I read Will’s column the image that came to mind was of an ignorant Pekingese yapping at the heels of a spiritual Great Dane,” the noted seminary president remarked.Of Graham’s theology, Will referenced an off-hand question he answered regarding his belief in miracles.“Billy Graham answered: Yes, Jesus performed some and there are ‘many miracles around us today, including television and airplanes.’ Graham was no theologian,” Will wrote.Emir Caner, the president of Truett McConnell University in Georgia, disputed Will’s assertion.“Graham was a solid theologian, standing for the inerrancy of Scripture, the exclusivity of salvation in Jesus Christ and the fundamentals of the faith,” Caner told me.Will also brought up an infamous Oval Office conversation the evangelist had with President Richard Nixon regarding Jews in the media.“One can reasonably acquit Graham of anti-Semitism only by convicting him of toadying,” Will wrote.Caner called that Will’s greatest misstep in the hit piece – feeding the liberal media’s narrative that Graham was an anti-Semite.“Will never mentions Graham’s apology years later and the Jewish community’s acceptance of the apology. Will never mentioned how Graham visited the newly formed state of Israel in 1960 when such a visit was unpopular in many Evangelical circles. Will never mentioned that it was Graham who personally brought the plight of Soviet Jews to the attention of President Nixon,” Caner said.In spite of the shameful smear, I doubt Billy Graham would’ve been all that bothered.I reckon he would’ve smiled at George Will and reminded him that we are all sinners and that God loves him and wants to have a relationship with him.Todd Starnes is host of Fox News & Commentary.

Guess we won't have to save a space at the table for this dude (Will) in the afterlife. Knocking Billy Graham is bad enough, but slamming him after he's passed on? Nothing like asking for it ...
